Christmas and New Year's



You flew down to Asheville and we began by having Krishnan Christmas at Leah’s.  It was so amazing being around you, family, and Juliet just celebrating the holidays.  Thursday morning we drove with Juliet and Karina to Charlotte to visit with Jake and Lani Wallace and then we spent the afternoon with Leah, Andrew, Venny, Gayathri, and family.  We played with the kidlets at the park, had a yummy Indian dinner, and then finished up the evening playing Catch Phrase in the hotel room.  Friday we headed to D.C. and dropped off Karina on the way.  You and I had some great talking time in the car and Juliet pooped like ten times.   We spent the night in because I was starting to feel sick.  Saturday we went to Georgetown, decided we would name one of our children Anastazia, and took Juliet to the pool where she just laughed and laughed.  Then you and I had a pizza and movie night.  Sunday you had to work and Juliet and I simply tired to survive at home alone and both sick.  You finally made it home and you were amazing taking care of both of us.  Monday we packed up and headed back to Asheville.  For New Years we went out for drinks at the LAB and then stayed in to watch the ball drop…I could not stay awake.  Sorry.  The next two days we were able to get lots of wedding planning done, have a date night out to Nacho’s restaurant, and simply have a good time.  I am so in love with you!

Biltmore and Pre-Christmas Activities



You came to town with Pete and Bree, and my friend Karina was visiting me from Mexico.  We didn’t get a lot of alone time, but we did a lot of fun stuff!  We did marriage counseling, Biltmore House and Winery (!!!), Tupelo Honey, Chocolate Lounge, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, lots of nose blowing, 12 Bones, naps, Salsas, Zambras, Over Easy, and finally Wal-Mart for some last minute Christmas shopping.  I think that my favorite parts of the weekend were the Biltmore Winery (I wonder why?!?!) and shopping with you at Wal-Mart.  Shopping together was our only alone time and we were doing something “normal”; I loved it.
